WebChess

It occurred to me that it would be useful if Webchess could be expanded to
increase its use with mobile devices that do not have fully functional web
browsers by allowing play via email.

This could be accomplished by expanding the capability of the email
notification system by allow it to accept moves/commands via email
responses to a central email address.

As in a Mailing List application, the users could issue moves/commands to
play Webchess. (e2-e4, offer draw, list users, challenge user, etc).

The mail notification system will need to be expanded to show the current
board position (ASCII I imagine)
Ex.

rnbqkbnr
pppppppp
........
........
........
........
PPPPPPPP
RNBQKBNR

This feature should be more than possible with a MTA (Sendmail, Qmail,
Exim, Mercury mail, etc) that can forward emails to a .php program for
processing.

I will be working on a proof of concept and will post the link here as
demonstration.
